„About the hard tyred safety, with the nice front springs and cast iron.
For me it's 100 % not a English or French bicycle.
For me it's from the Austrian Monarchi ore Germany.
It's a great bicycle.“

„Robert,You know I am not an expert on safety bicycles, however this seems to fit a description of Marriott & Cooper's 'Humber Dwarf Safety No 1 Roadster' in H.H.Griffin 'Bicycles & Tricycles of the year 1887' p.46 apart from the mention of 'center steering'. There is no picture and I do not have a M&C catalogue for 1887. I will try to find more information, it is certainly a most interesting machine. Marriott & Cooper split from Humber in 1885 but retained the rights to use the name Humber. I think Rudge manufactured their machines at this time.“
